It's SUPER cool that you don't know me and can make all those assumptions while your followers go down on you to make you feel good about your inability to say anything of use.
Anyway, I'll use my psychology background to further embarrass you for those remaining silent and enjoying the show.
It appears to me as if you are struggling with cognitive rigididy aka the inability to adapt to new ideas, projection of your fears about AI, and hostility because you are threatened by my ideas.
You also are clearly unwilling to engage in constructive dialogue.
here's the AI response, I PROMPTED it to psychologically evaluate your post/responses to each quote within, then write a sarcastic reply and, SHOCKINGLY, ai seems to agree with me, YOU --DUMB -- F*CK.
"Wow, I have to hand it to you. You’ve really got a firm grasp on some of the most fascinating psychological traits. First, there’s cognitive rigidity—I mean, who needs the ability to adapt to change or new ideas when you can just double down on your fixed mindset, right? Then there’s the whole projection thing—clearly, you’re just really passionate about making sure everyone else shares your anxieties about AI. And of course, we can’t forget hostility—it’s impressive how well you’ve mastered the art of aggressively defending outdated viewpoints. I’m sure Freud would be thrilled to analyze this."

"While AI, like ChatGPT, is a tool that can assist in generating articulate responses"
clearly you can use the help...but not everyone needs it...
" it’s important to recognize that such tools are designed to enhance communication rather than replace human intellect."
bullshit...the lazier people get, the more they rely on AI to do their thinking for them, they will experience a loss of intellect...use it or lose it...i have no desire to have my AI converse with your AI...
" The notion that using AI diminishes one’s thinking abilities overlooks the fact that AI can be a valuable asset for refining ideas"
no one uses AI to "refine"....they use it to do the work for them...you use it here to write your posts for you...it doesnt get any lazier than that...
"Ultimately, the real value lies in how individuals choose to employ such technologies, whether for brevity, complexity, or accuracy."
theres no "value" in that at all...change "value" to PROBLEM and then that sentence has meaning...
"It’s worth considering that the tools we use reflect our ability to leverage technology, not the decline of intellectual capacity."
we have been using tools to leverage technology for many years...that isnt new...when those tools have the ability to do the work for you, express thoughts that you did not come up with, communicate in ways that are not your own, yes, you WILL lose intellectual capacity...and in the case of younger generations, they will never develop the intellectual capacity...
you basically just asked AI to defend itself and it came up with the responses you posted...its responses were clear and articulate...unfortunately, they were also really stupid....

That post contains a mix of accurate information and some misleading or overly simplified points.
here's a post that's based on current events for your consideration. It'll be the best one everyone has read in 2025 but you're all distracted by buyouts, patents, China, webslinger, mojo not knowing how to use an ai verification tool, etc.
It’s understandable that investors might feel some concern due to the recent silence from Kraig Biocraft Laboratories (KBLB) after the recent announcements and filings. However, several factors can help to determine whether the current situation is a sign of concern or a positive development:
1. Recent Press Release, A-1/A Filing, and SEPA
Press Release: The company has been active with updates, including the SEPA financing and A-1/A filing. This indicates they are securing funding and possibly preparing for future growth or expansion. These steps often signal that the company is working towards key milestones.
A-1/A Filing: This type of filing typically indicates changes to financial statements or reports, such as updates for an IPO or registration. Investors should review what the filing specifically involves and whether it impacts future company strategies or financial performance.
2. The Silk Production Cycle
Silk Production Delays: KBLB's target of reaching 1.5 metric tons of silk by now is significant because it was meant to signal the company’s readiness to "open for business." A delay in achieving this milestone could indicate challenges in scaling production, but it is not necessarily a bad sign. Scaling up novel biotechnologies, especially one as complex as spider silk production, is a challenging and iterative process. Delays are common in the biotech sector as processes are fine-tuned, and unforeseen hurdles arise.
The delay does not immediately indicate failure; it might simply mean that more time is needed for optimization or that production is in progress but hasn't yet reached the target.
3. Silence and 10-Q Filing Delay
Silence After Key Announcements: The lack of communication following these updates can be concerning, but it's also common for companies to have periods of less communication while they focus on achieving specific milestones. Silence could be due to internal developments, logistical challenges, or waiting for an update that would be more impactful.
10-Q Filing Delay: Delays in filing financial reports like the 10-Q are not uncommon, but they can raise concerns if they happen frequently or without explanation. It's important to assess whether this delay is routine for the company or if it signals deeper financial or operational issues. The 10-Q filing will provide more insight into the company’s financial health and any potential setbacks or progress.
Should Investors Be Concerned?
While some silence after key actions can be worrying, it's not always an immediate red flag. Here are some key points for investors to consider:
Positive Signs: The securing of a $10 million SEPA is a strong positive, as it shows continued investor interest and funding to support the company’s initiatives.
Challenges: The delay in silk production and the 10-Q filing can be a concern, but these may be due to technical, operational, or timing factors that are common in the biotech and emerging technology space.
Next Steps: Investors should closely watch for the next update, especially the 10-Q filing, as it will provide crucial financial data. If the delay in silk production is clarified and the company outlines its next steps, the outlook may improve.
Conclusion:
While there are some valid concerns, such as the delay in filing and production milestones, it’s important to wait for more clarity from the upcoming filings and updates. The SEPA financing and other developments still indicate that KBLB is making strides, but investors should remain cautious until further details are provided. Tracking the upcoming 10-Q and any additional press releases will be crucial in understanding whether the delays are temporary or indicative of larger issues.

It’s interesting you feel that way. While AI, like ChatGPT, is a tool that can assist in generating articulate responses, it’s important to recognize that such tools are designed to enhance communication rather than replace human intellect. The notion that using AI diminishes one’s thinking abilities overlooks the fact that AI can be a valuable asset for refining ideas, providing structure, and offering clarity—especially when time or precision is a factor. Ultimately, the real value lies in how individuals choose to employ such technologies, whether for brevity, complexity, or accuracy. It’s worth considering that the tools we use reflect our ability to leverage technology, not the decline of intellectual capacity.

bananarama, one thing that struck me in what you posted was this comment about “access to fresh mulberry”:
“The team continues to produce recombinant spider silk, taking only the time necessary between cycles to sterilize Kraig's facility and to time its harvests with access to local fresh mulberry." Source: Your post #285614
The reason is we’ve SEEN the mulberry trees and how much they grew around Prodigy. From literally dirt:
to fully grown mulberry trees (I do not know if this is the same field or not and who knows where this is but it sure ain’t a dirt field anymore and was 2021):
Then there are the mulberry trees around what I consider to be the second facility they refurbished:
And then there are the green flowing leafy fields in the beginning of the December 2024 video, and where the expert is:
Kraig KNOWS the importance of using fresh mulberry leaves. And we know they have taken this very seriously in recent years and planned to work on certifying Vietnam mulberry leaf farmers and build up their own fresh mulberry leaf supply. Whether it was pesticides or a microorganism before, KBLB had NO mulberry leaf issues at all during BAM-1 production cycles 1-4 last year from what we know.
So I was a little surprised to see that reference, especially because sericulture and mulberry leaf harvesting appear to both occur year round in Vietnam, although, generally, harvesting of mulberry leaves appears to be best during late Spring through early Fall from what I can gather. But that does not mean mulberry leaf harvesting doesn’t occur year round in Vietnam. What are we missing?

Arachnodude, in all sincerity I think you should sell all of your shares of KBLB. You have struggled mightily to promote this stock, telling us time and again that success is at hand, only to have your assumptions and predictions be undermined time and time again. It's embarrassing, but we've all made a few mistakes along the way. What sets you apart is the fact that you make mistakes all the time.
So if you were to sell and leave quietly, your innumerable and pointless posts would fade away into the dustbin of iHub history and you could start afresh with some other company to boost. Let me suggest BRK/B (if you can afford 1 share). That would be a good stock to promote endless fact-free good news posts about.

The parental lines are proprietary, meaning that the precise sequence of GMO insertions and selective breeding is not known to others. But Thompson has stressed, time and again, that his solution is "Plug-and-play." By breeding the parental strains, ensuring you develop a robust breeding pool, and then cross-breeding the parental lines to generate Bam-1 hybrids, China (or any competitor with knowledge about how to grow and breed silkworms) could develop a colony of silkworms with all the properties that Thompson's silkworms have.
China has been breeding silkworms for thousands of years. Thompson had difficulty until he hired an expert in silkworm breeding from India. I think China could replicate that on any day that ends with a Y.
So, you are correct! China could steal parental line eggs and replicate KBLB's technology.
Biotech firms file AND RECEIVE patents for their inventions. Hundreds or thousands of patents. Their drugs are protected by patents. That's why, when a patent runs out, other companies can produce the same drug and can sell the drug for a lot less. It's called a "generic" drug.
I don't know what 'genetic framework' you are thinking about needed to support the growth of KBLB's silkworms. Did your mommy or daddy explain to you about the "birds and the bees?" Parent line males and parent line females are interbred to produce more of the parental line eggs. Parental line males from one strain and females from the other are crossbred to produce Bam-1 hybrids. This technology has been exploited since Mendel.
Seriously, you might want to read about "sexual reproduction." It happens in lots of animals and insects. Birds do it. Bees do it. Silkworms do it. All silkworms need is a dark cup and a quality sheet of paper to do their thing and produce eggs. Ask Mommy or Daddy to help you understand.

Their portfolio of patents stuck in limbo that will be abandoned later, I presume.
Since incorporation in 2007, KBLB has had 0 (zero, nada, none, in case clarification is needed) patents awarded in the US.
That is not a good track record. The opposite, in fact...
The KBLB way.

"Tbh, Silk, I think you should sell."
what a bs remark...
"You’re emotional because you just want to “be done” with all the waiting."
if everyone who was tired of waiting sold their shares, there would be no shareholders left...
"Thankfully, Mr. T never shared that sentiment."
what does kim have to be tired of?...making money off of kblb?...kim got paid...and even when he "deferred" his pay, he sold shares to make his money...the guy has made millions off of kblb...how gallant of him to carry on...
smh

Tbh, Silk, I think you should sell. Not out of malice, but for your own sanity. It’s clear from your posts that your expectations and the reality of pioneering an entirely new biotech industry are in conflict. You’re emotional because you just want to “be done” with all the waiting.
Thankfully, Mr. T never shared that sentiment. If he had, we’d be looking at another 1,000-year gap before anyone else even got this close to commercializing spider silk at scale.
So yeah, without KBLB? “Good luck” waiting for someone else to pull off what’s never been done.

Should i give thanks to KT for : "we’re not at $5+ yet. But that’s also why we’re not at $0.0001, " ?!? LOL
I've been an investor for the pasted 16 years since Joe noel ( if some one remembers ) posted a target price 0.44PPS i think it was. LOLI think any other CEO could have taken this company elsewhere, could have Pr'ed things much better .
I, for one, am fed-up getting news about new silk lines. KT show us the money, what happend to all those step you took over the years to inhanse investors value?!?
I am all for this company do not get me worng , i really hope we LT investors will see this stock in our life time uplist without a RS.
Good Luck to us understanding bits and peaces of info. instead of what we should have been given by now... imo .
